Golan Heights Private Tour

The Golan Heights Private Tour is a full day guided trip through northern Israel, traveling from your hotel up through Galilee to the Golan plateau to combine open landscapes, ancient history, and scenic viewpoints at a relaxed pace. A licensed guide accompanies you throughout, providing historical and biblical context as you visit the main sites of the Golan Heights.

• Shalom Observatory
• Synagogue of Katzrin
• Golan Winery
• Mitzpeh Gadot
• Mount Bental (optional, if time allows)
• Nimrod Fortress (optional, if time allows)
• Banias Natural Reserve (optional, if time allows)
• Biblical city of Dan (optional, if time allows)

The day begins with a 9:30 pickup from your hotel or apartment, followed by the drive north through rolling hills and farmland on the way to the Golan. You start at the Shalom Observatory for wide views over the region, then continue to the Synagogue of Katzrin to see the ancient ruins, and visit the Golan Winery before stopping at Mitzpeh Gadot, a viewpoint near the old frontier. Your guide shares the long history of the area and the stories behind each location as you go.

If time allows, the route can extend to the abandoned Syrian fortification at Mount Bental, the Nimrod Fortress, the Banias Natural Reserve, or the biblical city of Dan. The itinerary is a proposal and can be customized to your preferences, so the order and selection of stops may shift with the conditions of the day. The landscapes here are wide and quiet, with basalt stone and seasonal wildflowers across the plateau. By late afternoon you head back toward your hotel, finishing a full but unhurried day.
